Control access and change

People have access appropriate to their responsibilities.Privileged and remote access use suitable additional protection.Joiner, mover and leaver changes are recorded and followed through.Production changes have testing, approval and rollback evidence.

Keep systems resilient

Vulnerabilities and patches have owners and target dates.Backups are protected and restoration has been tested.Important logs are available, time-aligned and protected.Alerts have a clear triage, escalation and closure process.

Prepare the evidence

Relevant policies have owners and review dates.Key suppliers have been assessed according to their access and criticality.Personal-data flows, access and retention are understood.Control evidence can be located without a last-minute scramble.

Be ready to respond

Incident contacts and escalation responsibilities are current.Response playbooks cover the scenarios most relevant to us.Reporting decisions and evidence-preservation steps are understood.Lessons and assessment findings are tracked through verified closure.
